Rob McNeilly creating solutions together On The Importance of Expectation in Hypnosis and Psychotherapy Rubin Battino, M.S., Mental Health Counseling Expectation is considered to be the basis of the placebo effect in both medicine and psychotherapy. Expectation involves hope and anticipation and wishing. In the beginning psychoanalysis and psychodynamic approaches were structured for long-term involvement with a client, frequently going on for many years. As psychotherapy developed the expectation was for fewer and fewer sessions. We now have brief therapy and very brief therapy and single-session therapy. Hoyt (2009) gives an excellent history of brief therapy, along with a scholarly based introduction to the subject. In my practice I function as a very brief therapist, rarely seeing clients more than one or two times (more if they request). Let me relate how I arrived at this way of working. I heard the late Steve de Shazer describe a research project carried out at the Brief Therapy Center of Milwaukee. Clients were told randomly at intake that their particular presenting problem usually took five or ten sessions with a therapist. The therapists did not know about this. At follow-up at a sufficient later time it was found that the clients who were told ten sessions began to do “serious” work in their 8th or 9th session, and that the clients told five sessions did this generally in the 4th session. Having spent most of my life as an academic scientist I did a simple extrapolation and wondered what would happen if a client were told that his/her concerns could be resolved to their satisfaction in one session (two if really needed). So, I began telling clients that I worked as a very brief therapist who rarely saw clients more than one or two times. My expectation was one or two sessions, and this turned out to be the case with most of my clients. The late Kay Thompson was fond of saying something like, “If you do not believe in what you are doing, then why should the client?” I believe. It also undoubtedly helps that my sessions are always open-ended with respect to time. (I believe that the record for this is Milton H. Erickson’s 17 hour session—mine is about three hours.) Since I have written a book about how I work in this mode (2006), I will just mention a few of the things that I do here. Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) – A session frequently involves some use of the SFBT Miracle Question with its expectation that the client will create in their post-miracle thinking such realistic and appealing life changes that they cannot but help incorporate them into their lives. The trick, if you will, is to get the client to provide as much detail as you can elicit for their post-miracle life. Connected with this is suggesting a number of ways they can act AS-IF their life has changed in a particularly desirable way. Narrative Therapy – When a client is stuck (why they come to see you) they feel as if they cannot act differently, i.e., they are being controlled in some way by internal forces. Externalization is then used to suggest to the client that the controlling power/entity can be resisted and overcome and even “exorcized.” My clients generally like the exorcize image and we work out ways for this to happen. When and how have they successfully resisted or overcome this internal demon? Usually, this work is done in the hypnosis segment of the session, but it can be done directly. Gestalt Therapy Two-Chair – With a surprising number of clients the Gestalt Therapy two-chair procedure is just the correct thing to do. This is the case with polarities within the client, and with conflicts with parents or other relatives or people. When a client really gets into switching roles he/she is usually in some level of trance. O’Hanlon’s Inclusivity – People frequently get stuck in their lives as being either this or that. They are either okay or sad, depressed, anxious, overeating, or what -have-you. It is a mind-shocking experience to think that they might be happily depressed, calmly anxious, desperately at ease, sadly joyful, or overeating fewer calories. These oxymoronic statements can be quite life-changing (they are also a form of reframing). Reframing – Suggesting a different meaning to an event or feeling or experience can be revolutionary. Being stuck means interpreting what is happening in one’s life in only one way. Reframing provides alternate meanings, and allows the client to view his/her life from a changed perspective. Thinking of behaviors in different contexts is also a reframing. To perceive one’s self differently is change that is lasting. Stories – Telling stories and building metaphors that contain within them alternative ways of being and thinking allow the client to discover new ways of living and acting. I tell lots of stories, many of them personal. Hypnosis for Consolidation – It is generally accepted that people are more receptive to suggestions while they are in a trance state. The hypnosis segment of a session usually occurs at the end and is used to consolidate and repeat the various themes that have emerged during the session. New suggestions are introduced and woven into the tapestry of the session. The client’s inner mind can then pick and choose what makes most sense for them. Many relevant possibilities are introduced here. Milton H. Erickson was an artist in structuring a session with a client so that various expectations were “seeded” at the beginning of the session and then utilized at later appropriate times. People anticipate change in various ways. Anticipating going to a hospital for surgery can be scary in terms of the procedure or it can be hopeful in terms of the expected outcome. When I got a full knee replacement I did not look forward to the surgery or the long rehab period, but I certainly looked forward to being able to walk and hike comfortably. Which aspect do you focus on? When you focus on the hopeful and positive aspects of change the negative aspects dim and blur and can be quickly forgotten or overlooked. When hoped-for change is seeded, then it is more likely to occur. The placebo effect is about anticipating positive change and healing and health. The literature shows it to be remarkably effective. That is why my expectation is that therapy will proceed rapidly and effectively. Expect happiness and health and joy and the probability of rapid change. Battino, R. (2006). Expectation.

  • Psychological Perspectives on Storytelling and Narrative A
    Psychological Perspectives on Storytelling and Narrative A Hermeneutic Literature Review Lisa Beachman A dissertation submitted to Auckland University of Technology in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Psychotherapy 2018 Department of Psychotherapy Supervisor: Paul Solomon i Abstract Anthropologists identify storytelling as universal feature of human cultures, and theorists in a range of social sciences characterize it as a defining attribute of our species. But despite the fact that psychotherapy is a discipline predicated on sharing stories, relatively little critical attention has been directed at this core human behaviour from within our field. By means of a hermeneutic literature review, this dissertation seeks to identify the conceptions of storytelling and narrative available within psychologically informed research literature, with the intention of forming a basis of understanding for further exploration of the function and uses of narrativity in psychodynamic psychotherapy. My findings suggest that the ability to use narrative effectively is a strong indicator of psychological wellbeing, with implications for both intrapsychic integrity and interpersonal effectiveness. Research moreover suggests that storytelling may be an instinctive human drive with profound implications for our understanding of the world. Thus narrative may also offer insights into how an individual identity is formed, and how it may be transformed within the context of psychotherapy. Current work in the field suggests the importance of further reflection on the epistemological and ethical issues raised by contemporary narrativist conceptions of psychotherapeutic engagement, with implications for both the development of psychodynamic theory and professional practice. ii Acknowledgements My thanks go to all those who have trusted me with their stories, and to those who have shared in mine.

  • The Historical Roots of Gestalt Therapy Theory
    The Historical Roots of Gestalt Therapy Theory Rosemarie Wulf The theory of Gestalt therapy is itself a new Gestalt, though it does not contain many new thoughts. What its founders, Fritz and Laura Perls and Paul Goodman, did was to weave a new synthesis out of existing concepts. The background of this new Gestalt is composed of concepts and elements from different bodies of knowledge and disciplines. I would like to give you an idea of the cultural and historical situation that is the Zeitgeist (the spirit of the time) that prevailed during the lifetimes of the founders of Gestalt therapy. What kind of theories and traditions did Fritz and Laura come into contact with? Where did they find ideas that were in line with their own, what other ideas did they reject in their search for answers to the fundamental questions that are either implicitly or explicitly contained in every theory of psychotherapy? What is a human being? How does he or she function? Why do we exist? Is there a reason to exist? How should we behave toward each other? How does psychological illness develop? Firstly the background: the wider field, an overview of the Zeitgeist. In the second part, I will present the various contacts Fritz and Laura Perls had with specific persons and their ideas or theoretical models. The beginning of the 20th century was characterized by an explosive development of science and technology. The era of automation and cybernetics had begun. The rise of nuclear and quantum physics led to radical revolutionary change. Biology, chemistry and medicine also began to make rapid progress.

Erica Johnson Ronald The Efficacy of Narrative Therapy Approaches with Self-Injurious Clients ABSTRACT This study was undertaken to determine the efficacy of narrative therapy approaches with self-injurious clients. Self-injury is an issue gaining momentum, particularly among adolescent clients. Narrative therapy is a therapeutic technique that has gained popularity globally in the last several decades, due to its movement away from the expert mentality in mental health care. Both self-injury and narrative therapy are issues with limited research available. Fourteen clinicians trained in narrative therapy approaches were interviewed in a qualitative research design. The results of twelve of the interviews were utilized in the findings and two interviews were not included in the studies’ findings due to the ineligibility to the participant sample. Questions were asked to clinicians about the methods of self-injury within their client population, the demographics of the self- injuring clients, benefits of the narrative therapy approach, and narrative therapy efficacy and general comments. Major findings of this study indicate that narrative therapy is a beneficial and efficacious approach to treatment with self-injurious clients.

  • Towards a More Deeply Embodied Approach in Gestalt Therapy 1
    Studies in Gestalt Therapy 2(2), 43-56 James I. Kepner Towards a More Deeply Embodied Approach in Gestalt Therapy 1 This article critiques and assesses the development of body-oriented work in gestalt therapy. Strengths of the gestalt therapy approach are highlighted as work with the "actual," and holding an integral viewpoint. The author criti­ ques limitations in the field involving a narrow epistemology of the founding perspective, the inadequacy of awareness alone for psychophysical change, the inclusion of structural concepts, and the need for physical methodology including touch and movement and other somatic methods. A brief model is offered for appreciating the multi-level complexity of a more fully embodied approach. Key words: Body-oriented work, gestalt therapy, epistemology, gestalt therapy training, non-dualistic approach, self, organism/ environment field, figure/ ground, structured ground, awareness, patterns and organization, developmental theory. Borfy Process: A Gestalt Approach to Working With the Borfy in P.rychotherapy (Kepner, 1987) was published 21 years ago. The book was my attempt to articulate a fuller body-oriented psychotherapy from the gestalt therapy ap­ proach. Gestalt therapy certainly had interest in body process and experience but, up to that time, the actual methodology for body-oriented practice was very limited. I found the ways in which gestalt therapists utilized more inten­ sive body therapeutic techniques to be a kind of grafting of often incompati­ ble methods or approaches onto gestalt therapy technique. This often re­ sulted in an unintegrated hodge-podge. As a "Young Turk" at the brash age of 34, I also had the motivation to "correct" my elders and teachers in the gestalt therapy world who, I thought, did not go far enough in working with the body.

  • Benefits, Limitations, and Potential Harm in Psychodrama
    Benefits, Limitations, and Potential Harm in Psychodrama (Training) © Copyright 2005, 2008, 2010, 2013, 2016 Rob Pramann, PhD, ABPP (Group Psychology) CCCU Training in Psychodrama, Sociometry, and Group Psychotherapy This article began in 2005 in response to a new question posed by the Utah chapter of NASW on their application for CEU endorsement. “If any speaker or session is presenting a fairly new, non-traditional or alternative approach, please describe the limitations, risks and/or benefits of the methods taught.” After documenting how Psychodrama is not a fairly new, non-traditional or alternative approach I wrote the following. I have made minor updates to it several times since. As a result of the encouragement, endorsement, and submission of it by a colleague it is listed in the online bibliography of psychodrama http://pdbib.org/. It is relevant to my approach to the education/training/supervision of Group Psychologists and the delivery of Group Psychology services. It is not a surprise that questions would be raised about the benefits, limitations, and potential harm of Psychodrama. J.L. Moreno (1989 – 1974) first conducted a psychodramatic session on April 1, 1921. It was but the next step in the evolution of his philosophical and theological interests. His approach continued to evolve during his lifetime. To him, creativity and (responsible) spontaneity were central. He never wrote a systematic overview of his approach and often mixed autobiographical and poetic material in with his discussion of his approach. He was a colorful figure and not afraid of controversy (Blatner, 2000). He was a prolific writer and seminal thinker.

Robert Stephen Busch 2011 ii iii Abstract This thesis problematises a conflict between two discourses: narrative therapy and evidence-based psychotherapy evaluation in psychology. To answer the research question of how narrative therapy can be evaluated, I contextualise both discourses by historically situating them in and through a genealogical examination. Narrative therapy is a postmodern therapy that draws from a diverse history of knowledge involving a range of intepretativist theoretical influences that are resistances to positivist social science. In contrast, evidence-based practice in psychology, the latest model of evidence-based psychotherapy evaluation, is modelled from evidence-based medicine. Evidence-based practice is understood as an improved evaluation model from the empirically-supported treatment movement, and operates within a positivist philosophy that privileges objective methodology over interpretative research approaches. A genealogy enables a power relationship between narrative therapy and evidence-based psychotherapy evaluation to be made visible that indicates an incommensurable conflict (a differend) due to their divergent philosophies on the formation and practice of human knowledge (epistemology). However, a genealogy also enables a fragmentation of the meaning of evaluation and narrative therapy and in doing so pluralises the meaning of evaluation, narrative therapy, and narrative therapy evaluation.

  • An Exploration of Knowledge and Power in Narrative, Collaborative-Based, Postmodern Therapies
    An Exploration of Knowledge and Power in Narrative, Collaborative-Based, Postmodern The Professional Counselor Volume 1, Issue 3 | Pages 201-207 © 2011 NBCC, Inc. & Affiliates Therapies: A Commentary www.nbcc.org http://tpcjournal.nbcc.org doi:10.15241/cjs.1.3.201 Cody J. Sanders Given the increasing popularity of narrative and collaborative therapies, this article undertakes an examination of the postmodern theory underlying these therapies. This consideration gives particular attention to issues of power and knowledge in therapeutic practice, examined both within clients’ narratives and within the therapeutic alliance. Implications on the role of counselors in recognizing and addressing power within clinical practice is likewise detailed. Keywords: collaborative therapies, postmodern theory, narrative, knowledge, power, stories Knowledge and power, terms used frequently in everyday vernacular, carry particular nuanced meaning and significant weight in discussions of postmodern therapies. Narrative therapies, in particular, bear the marks of significant shaping by notions of knowledge and power that are given particular form through a process of postmodern critique. While narrative therapy1 and other collaborative-based postmodern therapies have much to offer in the way of method for counseling practice, one would miss the significance of methodological structure without first understanding the philosophical underpinnings. While postmodern thought is often referred to in a unified manner, it is important to note that postmodern influences on therapy do not stem from a unified system or philosophy called “postmodernism.” Instead, postmodern influences may be most clearly articulated as a critique of the assumptions of modernism. Modernist thought can be traced throughout the foundations of the psychotherapeutic theories and modalities that have dominated the field from Freud to the present.

Anna Chase Hogeland Expressive Writing as an Adjunct to Talk Therapy: Considerations for a Creative Intervention for Depressive Disorders ABSTRACT This theoretical thesis offers considerations for expressive writing as an adjunct to talk therapy, particularly for adults with depressive disorders and ruminative thoughts. This thesis asks: how do theories and empirical studies inform the use of expressive writing as an adjunct to talk therapy in adults with depressive disorders to decrease ruminations, and how can clinicians integrate this treatment intervention into practice? The primary aims of this thesis are to expand upon the limited knowledge about the therapeutic effects of expressive writing, to offer direction for further research, and to propose a model for the implementation of expressive writing into session time. Narrative Therapy and Relational-Cultural Theory serve as clinical orientations to interpret and implement the intervention. The effects of the writing exercises on the therapeutic alliance are discussed throughout the thesis.
